Based on the logic you outlined, I'd actually use 4 rules - I'm attaching a simple sample. Right click the link in the post header, and save the file locally. Right click the saved file and select design - from there you can preview and try it out. :)

Hi Hilary, thank you for answering my query.

If it's not possible then I think that would be an acceptable solution. Would I add 3 validation rules to the date picker?

I don't think you'll be able to restrict their ability to pick a date - however, you could run validation after the date has been entered. Is that acceptable?

Restrict date picker depending on a choice field

Hi, I hope someone is able to help.

I have a date picker field that I would like to restrict depending on the result of another field. For example:

I have a choice field (Priority Rating) with 3 options: P1, P2, P3
Depending on which option is selected I would like to affect the date picker (Deferral Expiry Date) as follows:

P1 - disable people from being able to select a past date and also a date that is more than 365 days in the future
P2 - disable people from being able to select a past date and also a date that is more than 730 days in the future
P3 - disable people from being able to select a past date and also a date that is more than 1095 days in the future

I've tried validating the date picker field but it's not really enabling me to do what I need to do.

Thank you.

Best wishes,
